Stats Central is a statistical consulting unit established at UNSW in 2016 to provide university-wide support for staff and students during study design and analysis. 

We are recruiting several assistant consultants to help with introductory statistics courses and providing study design and analysis advice for researchers across UNSW. Day to day tasks in this applied consulting role include: sample size calculations; teaching; advising on the design and analysis of experimental and observational studies with clustered and longitudinal sampling, for continuous and discrete responses.

This is a casual role (Level 5, currently $53.68 per hour), up to one day per week, and would be ideal for someone currently studying a research degree in statistics who is looking to broaden their practical experience. We welcome remote-work applicants.
